GET MAJOR RESULTS FOR INDIE RELEASES

The Independent Music Awards is an influential & effective international program that helps top-ranked indie artists & releases overcome mainstream obstacles and reach millions of Fans, Programmers, Talent Buyers, Film, TV & Gaming Music Supervisors, Press and other industry movers & shakers.

The IMAs broadens the definition of what is commercial by giving vetted independent talent access to major market promotional outlets and music fans.

ARTISTRY HAS ITS AWARDS

The Independent Music Awards is not a contest or battle of the
bands. IMA artists receive yearlong print, online & broadcast
promotions plus distribution & performance opportunities including an IMA showcase at the CMJ Music Marathon.

The IMAs represent the diversity of today’s vibrant indie scene and supports artists with previous major label releases as well as artists that have only self-released or appeared on indie labels.

There are over 50 Music and Design categories including
Genre Song & Album, Social Action Song, Cover Song,
Music Video, Live Concert Photo, Merch, Band & Indie Label Web Site, Press Photo, & Gig Poster.
